Great post

I wanted a very stable post for my new mailbox. I found it with this one. Heavy metal, with a great looking finish in a color that matched my mailbox. This is a heavy duty post and once put in the ground properly, will last a long time.

This Pro Edger is an excellent tool to have,

I am very satisfied with the quality and the style of this product. If it was possible, the only thing I would change, is the length of time I had to wait to receive the order. Overall, I am very happy I waited patiently. I would recommend this tool to any friend and family who would appreciate it as I do...Thanks Overstock!

A+ ....the "plus" is because I love using it!

Easy to put together, instructions to use easy to follow. Lastly, very easy to use. I was like a kid in a toy store with my new "big boy toy". It works great and is easy to handle. I forgot it had an adjustment knob to raise/lower the strength of the motor which took a little time to finesse but what a great feature THAT is!!!! (no just a hi/med/lo switch; you can actually slide up/down the strength to max/min. Very nice!
The mulch bag is larger than I expected (based on the other reviews) and it is harder to empty out than I would like. I've also wondered about replacing the bag in the event it tears (which I think could be possible if not inevitable).
Great product, though. I've told all my friends about it.

Grand daughter

Bought this as a Christmas present for my grand baby. I put it together, filled it with many other gifts, then wheeled it into the room for her to dive into. The other wrapped gifts seemed to just sit, so she could get pulled around the house in her new wagon. She is 18 months, and absolutely loves this.

Great except for battery

The Earthwise cordless electric mower is wonderful. It is relatively quiet and best of all there is no gas, oil, or noxious fumes. A single battery charge lasts most of the summer here in Michigan. The downside? The mower has a 2-year warranty. At 2 years and 1 month, the battery died...completely! I had stored the battery indoors over the winter and could not have been more surprised to find it dead come Spring. I had to spend an additional $100 to purchase a new battery. I certainly hope that I do not have to buy a new battery every 2 years because that is far more than I am saving in the cost of gas and oil.

Installation complete - first impressions

In May 2013 I put a hot tub in the yard for my wife. Come October she said she wanted an enclosure around it for the winter. After much research I selected the Palram Silver 8x8-foot Snap and Grow Greenhouse and purchased it from Overstock.com. Shipment was quick and the package arrived in good shape. but note that it is heavy for one person. You may need help moving it around.
I rated the quality as good. There was no lack or defect but you get what you pay for. There are much more expensive models out there that may be of a higher quality but at a much higher price. I rated value as excellent, judging it based on price and quality for the price. This is not a real cheapie piece of junk. This is a well designed product for the price.
I made a base for the greenhouse out of 4" X 6" X10 foot pressure treated ties cut to the 96.5 X 96.5 inch specs in the plans. It is square and level, sits on my concrete block patio, and should provide a solid base for the greenhouse. I would not consider buying this greenhouse unless you plan to put it on a solid, rigid, square and level base. It is too light to just sit on the ground.
Because we were building this around an existing hot tub it complicated the build just a little and may have taken us a bit longer. I would say allocate 8 hours and two people and you should have no trouble finishing the job in that time. If you have any experience with building stuff, two people can probably finish it in 4 hours.
I am quite impressed with the design and engineering of the kit. Things go together well and the structure, is quite strong and rigid. Mine has only been up for a few days but we are getting 15 mph winds today and the building is not visibly flexing at all. The plastic panels flex and rattle a bit but that is to be expected.
The fit of the doors is not quite right yet, but that may be due to a need for some adjustments. I think we will be able to improve it.
While the assembly is not hard, I would not recommend it to a first timer to assembling a kit. At least one person needs to have some basic understanding of construction of kits and how things go together. My daughter helped me and we both characterize this as building Ikea furniture but on a bigger scale. If that sounds too hard for you, then get some help.
Assembly requires a minimum of two people as there are times when one has to hold while the other places parts in place or puts them together. Or one needs to be up high and the other needs to hand parts. Definitely use silicone spray as recommended in the instructions as some parts are very tight fitting, which is good. On a few occasions we found a rubber mallet helpful to get that last little bit to go in and seat properly. And be sure to follow the sequence exactly as presented in the manual. All parts are well marked so you should have no trouble matching up pieces to the instructions.
While not absolutely necessary I would recommend having a sheet metal seamer tool like this one. http://www.harborfreight.com/6-inch-jaw-straight-sheet-metal-seamer-98728.html. Some of the parts have thin edges and can get slightly dinged or slightly bent during shipping. Or, if you drop something, you can bend the edges making assembly nearly impossible. With this tool this was not a problem at all as this straightens them out quickly and easily.
We did the build over two days of about 3 hours each, not including the building of the base. We stopped on the first day because the wind hit 22 mph and it started to rain. We got the frame up and the front and rear "glass". On the second day we got the rest of the panels in and finished the structure. Again, nothing hard if you have any building skills at all and you can follow the pictorial directions.
As a greenhouse this should be an excellent product. However, because I am using at a hot tub enclosure I was not able to put in two braces that support the roof. Normally this would not be a problem but if I get a snow load on there the roof may be over stressed. So I am going to have to come up with a modification that will reinforce the roof. That is not a product defect or design defect. It is because I am using it for a purpose for which it was not intended. In areas where snow is not likely this might not even be an issue.
I can't say how this will hold up over the years but based on my initial impressions I think it will do just fine. The plastic panels are quite tough and should hold up well to minor impacts like small branches or stuff being blown around by wind. We have already used the hot tub inside the greenhouse and it seems it is going to work very well.

Bamboo deck tiles

I own a condo in *** . I have a 2nd floor wooden deck balcony(which is part of MY FLOOR SPACE) which was rough to my feet due to weathering. I covered it with this product. It looks fantastic, feels good to to the feet, drains completely in a heavy rain, color is excellent. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE TILES
I only set them 3 weeks ago, but, ran into a problem with my condo association.....They did not approve them saying that the weight was too heavy for the deck NOT TRUE! They also stated that there was no drainage NOT TRUE! They will not bend on their decision. I have to remove them by Nov 25 which is next week!
I just retired at 68 yrs old....I thought I was going to enjoy this beautiful comfortable new looking deck.....
This is just a warning to condo owners. It could happen to you.
I had tears with this denial. I would love to post the name of the condo association, but they would probably take me to court.
ANYWAY,BUY THESE TILES YOU WILL LOVE THEM....I ONLY HAD A BRIEF ENJOYMENT OF JOY

Overall good, but...

VERY PROMPT shipping.... and cannot beat the price. I saved $30 off ****** list price too boot! Good JOB OVERSTOCK!
Just yesterday used for the first time my new Earthwise 20" cordless mower. It did a nice job cutting and mulching in my opinion. Liked the easy start (after figuring out that the key is a pretty snug fit and has to go ALL the way in.... wrestled the thing into my trunk and lugged it to authorized service center thinking it was defective and looked like an idiot -by the way... Earlier called Earthwise 800 number with questions three different times before I finally found a person that knew anything... and don't call on weekends - they don't answer. AND that isn't really Earthwise you are calling but rather some "sort" of tech support (marginal) or distribution company). ALSO, need to realize that the battery indicator on the mower doesn't light up unless the mower is RUNNING! Anyway, back to the mower itself. I was pleased at how it cut,,, but was fearful of low battery life after about 40 minutes. Have to step lively if you want to finish a yard (mine is pretty small) on only one charge and have tall grass. Plus... my hand was aching from holding the lever on and had to stop several times to rest my aching right hand (finally cheated and used a rope). The biggest problem is it is SO DARN HARD TO PUSH! WOW!!! I have done my share of mowing with gas mowers that were NOT self-propelled and NEVER have I encountered any mowers even close to the awkwardness and difficulty in maneuvering and the sheer physical force needed to push that thing around my relatively flat yard. True grass was somewhat tall in the back but beware if your yard has the slightest incline or slope or lots of twists and turns, you definitely have your work cut out for you.Especially if you are short -handle setting is a little too tall. I was debating what would happen first, my finishing the yard,,, or fainting. If you mow frequently, you can cancel your membership to the gym and just mow! Kill two birds with one stone. PROS: Eco-friendly, quiet, cuts nicely (if grass isn't too tall), Easy to change cutting levels, Great strength-building/cardio workout. CONS: battery life questionable, hand cramps and potential for stroke or heart attack. Fine for small, FLAT yards. Hope I don't have significant battery issues or wheel problems I have seen in other reviews. SO FAR, I would recommend to others but must keep in mind the drawbacks.

Seemed to work really well, at first.

At first I thought this is going to be great. It smells very potent. My new flowers in several areas of my landscaping seemed to be undisturbed for about 2 1/2 weeks. Usually everyday something is eating them and yanking them out of the ground. But, then after that I went out the next morning to take a look and about six plants had been chomped down to stubs and one was uprooted.
So, in conclusion - it's too expensive for very little product and certainly did not last long enough.

Complete set of tools-even a seat - not bad

Because of all the rain/snow - I'm still waiting to use my garden tools, but I was very pleased with the look and feel of the product and look forward to getting out in my new garden and giving it a good workout.

Bye-Bye Slugs!!

Living in the New England, gardening and optimizing outdoor time is a top priority for me. When my garden started showing signs of stress from the slugs I did the usual "beer" thing. When sitting out one evening and feeling a slug make its way from my shoe to my ankle, I did the right thing! I researched products and purchased Sluggo. All I can say is this stuff WORKS!!! I would have on average 10-15 slugs every morning in the beer trap. Four days after using Sluggo, I put out beer and the next morning, not a slug to be found! Great stuff - if you want to rid your yard of slugs this is the product to use!

Great Tool to have around the house

I wanted an electric powerwasher to have on hand for those needs around our new home, incluing powerwashing the deck and washing vehicles. Overstock.com delivered once again. This powerwasher is great and has many attachments that make it very versatile. I searched for this same item and found it for double the cost at a big box retailer so I am very happy to have found it at Overstock.com. I highly recommend this item.

24 V. lawn mower

This is one good product. I was able to start it with ease, stop it many times to pick up rocks and get them out of the way, then, with ease have it start right up again. I would never have a gas mower again. I was able, on my first charge, to mow for 1-1/2 hours. I am very pleased and the price is $60 less than retail stores. Plus only $2.95 shipping, you can't beat it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Would have had 5 stars but sprayer died

Within the first 30 days, the sprayer hose and sprayer blew up ... I loved the unit up to that point. Pulsar is sending a new hose/sprayer unit to me no charge so because of that, the overall rating has gone up to Good from Average ... What I dislike about the design is that it is quite easy to tip over when you reach the end of the hose and the hose is so stiff that it is difficult to wind it up without holding the whole unit upright while you are doing so ... CLEANS GREAT though !!!!!!! Love that the engine shuts off when you aren't pulling the trigger - way better than listening to my old gas engine power washer ... and you can't beat the electric on off start instead of pulling the cord on a gas one.

flatbed cart

I waited a month to review this cart to be sure I wasn't so pleased just because it is new. It was fairly simple to assemble with good instructions and is made of solid materials. It has been put to the test and has handled everything without fail. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with a large yard who enjoys working in it.

Works Good

This snow blower is easy to assemble, starts easily and is very lightweight. I only had a chance to use it on about 4 inches of light snow. It cleared my 2 car driveway, sidewalk and walkway to the house on one charge, in about 20 minutes. It also removed about 2-3 inches of iced over snow the county snowplow left at the end of the driveway. I am satisfied with it but feel it could use more power and be built with stronger materials. The machine itself doesn't feel very sturdy, which makes me wonder about its longevity. I like the electric chute control but I would have liked a manual option too, just in case it stops working. I know this is new technology for a snow blower but I think its price **** over priced. The price would be justified if it came with 2 batteries or if it could be used either corded or cordless. On the plus side, it is electric, cordless, and lightweight. It's convenient to use and there is no need to worry about gas or oil and it's virtually maintenance free. It is easy for women and seniors to use too. I'm skeptical about the longevity of it but I guess I find out. In hindsight, I would have purchased the 15 amp corded electric and saved myself *** dollars.

Nice Pressure washer - But....

Got this item is my FIRST O'Stock Purchase. I am VERY comfortable ordering stuff via ONLINE and have done so for years (being an e-Commerce WebStore Consultant - what good is it that I cannot PRACTISE WHAT I PREACH& SELL)
The best surprise was the its nice to deal with O'Stock Customer Service personal - as I had ONE Small part missing ( not sellers fault) However they sent me WHOLE NEW SET and I returned the first set without any issues.
The product is on paper perfect match for the specs-wise for my use (Sailboat wash down & House desk washing etc) without blowing holes into things. The Instant shut-off is working well in the unit; but have READ LOTS OF REVIEWS that's seems say it wont last. The Washer has only ONE NOZZEL so limited 'spray' patterns. But its ok for my use. Added bonus is the CAR WASHING attachment - that is handy for adding scum-remover for decks and barnacles'!

totally happy with new Greenhouse

I purchased this after shopping around for over 2 years. We have a smaller one at the school where I teach gardening. It was a fantastic bargain and I have recommended it widely on FB this last week. There are a few things I wish I had know before starting: the fittings are super tight and had to be shaved a bit to start them into their adjoining pieces even with lubricant--nice tight fit but time consuming, some of the pictures did not make sense to me and there is no text at all explaining construction--sometimes too 3-4 attempts on fitting pieces to get it right. I did almost all of it myself and it took about 10 hours start to finish after creating a solid base. We were missing 2 pieces and had one mislabeled but customer service contacted me promptly and emailed me to get the exact part # and promised quick fix. It is very sturdy in the wind--25-30 MPH immediately after construction without issue. It held its temperature well at 10-12 degrees above ambient. Vent works well but I ...
